What we do
At YourGrant Limited, we support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), social enterprises, and charities through the full process of securing public and alternative funding. From identifying relevant opportunities to preparing strong, compliant applications, we manage the steps that often make funding feel complex or out of reach.
Our work is grounded in a clear understanding of how funders assess proposals.
Whether you’re launching a new initiative or planning for growth, we help you approach funding strategically and with confidence.
Business Growth Grants
Funding provided by government or industry bodies to support SMEs in scaling operations, increasing employment, or expanding into new markets.
​
These grants are aimed at helping small and medium-sized businesses expand, improve productivity, or adopt new technologies. Funding is typically available for capital investments, skills development, and operational improvements. Opportunities are offered by local growth hubs, local administrations, and public-private partnerships.
Innovation & R&D Funding
Financial support aimed at businesses developing innovative products, technologies, or services, covering research, testing, and product development costs.
​
This support includes grants and competitions for businesses developing new products, services, or processes. Key schemes include Innovate UK Grants and sector-specific R&D funding. These are often highly competitive and require a clear commercialisation plan and technical merit.
Tax Relief & Incentives
Schemes that reduce tax liabilities or offer financial incentives, such as R&D tax credits or capital allowances, designed to encourage business investment and innovation.
​
Companies investing in research and innovation can access R&D Tax Credits, Patent Box relief, and Capital Allowances and other tax relief schemes. These reduce a company’s tax bill or result in a cash rebate. The schemes are subject to eligibility and documentation requirements from HMRC.
Government Contracts & Procurement
Opportunities for businesses to supply products or services directly to government bodies through competitive tendering and procurement processes.
​
Public sector bodies procure goods and services through tenders listed on platforms like Contracts Finder and Find a Tender. We help clients understand procurement processes and prepare competitive bids for relevant contracts, from digital services to infrastructure.
Business Incubators & Accelerators
Structured programmes providing startups and SMEs with mentorship, resources, networking opportunities, and sometimes funding, to help accelerate business growth.
​
We support applications to Innovate UK Business Connect (former UK Innovate EDGE) support and programmes under the Eureka network, a European initiative that funds collaborative R&D with international partners. These accelerators offer grant funding, mentoring, and market access for high-growth and tech-based companies.
Export Finance & Trade Support
Financial assistance, credit guarantees, and advisory services helping SMEs manage risks and costs associated with international trade and exporting.
​
UK Export Finance (UKEF) and the Department for Business and Trade offer support for businesses expanding internationally. This includes trade finance, insurance, and grants to attend overseas trade shows or explore new markets. We help identify relevant schemes and prepare submissions.
Crowdfunding & Alternative Finance
Funding raised directly from individuals or communities through online platforms or non-traditional lenders, bypassing conventional banks or investors.
​
Alternative finance includes platforms for equity crowdfunding, peer-to-peer lending, and revenue-based financing. We help assess whether these routes are appropriate, assist with investor materials, and advise on how to align funding strategy with business goals.
Equity Funding
Investment obtained by selling a stake in the business to private investors, venture capitalists, or angel investors, providing capital in exchange for equity ownership.
​
Equity finance involves raising capital by selling shares in your business. It can come from angel investors, venture capital funds, or institutional investors. We support pitch preparation, investor targeting, and due diligence readiness, especially where aligned with grant-funded innovation.
We treat your business with the same care, commitment, and attention as if it were our own ensuring you receive the best possible results and service experience.
